It is stated in the "Why not Multiplayer?" thread that the reason we cannot implement it is that we'd need the Source code, Blitz, and skills in Blitz.
I have two of those three.
I plan on learning Blitz as I go, but this project would go infinitely faster with some collaborative work.
If someone wants to help me "fix" the source code, we could actually, truly implement Multiplayer into Stranded 2. Among a league of other changes that mere mods can't handle.
This is a very real, very sincere proposal. I will spend my own free time on this regardless of whether I get help or not. However, if I do get help, the chances greatly increase of a higher quality product coming a lot faster.
Stranded 2 is an amazing game, and the developers did some amazing work that I think we all appreciate. What they've done. But we can also appreciate the fact that there's a limit to what any single person, or even single team, can do.
And given that, I hope they'll understand that I mean to undertake this project with all due respect to their original creation. In all my experience with gaming, community input, interaction and feedback are one of the key elements that turn a good game into a great experience. I merely hope the Devs of Stranded 2 won't take personal offense to me wanting to modify the game in this way.
I of course would never dream of trying to pass off the game as my own or something ridiculous like that.
